  • Hi,can we use MATLAB for the homework?

For example, for Question 1, I obtained the Fourier transform in terms of the general zeros and poles, and then replaced, say z1 by r1.exp(jw1), where r1 and w1 are constants.

Now, for an approximate plot, do I fix r1 and w1, as the values that correspond to the approximate location of the zero/pole or do I let them remain general. for example for (a) the location of the upper zero would be something like (0.6)exp(j(pi/3))),

Basically, it's a mean looking function, and for an approximate plot, I was tempted to use MATLAB to plot it. Can I do that? --Dlamba
